The REHTZ-SAETLEY COMBINATION

This beautiful, talented and popular
lady. supported by an excellent company,
which includes Miss Susie Sitgreaves, of
this city, will put THE Commercial Tour
lists Bride" upon the Opera House stage
tomorrow night. Miss Herndon, whose
real name is Matte Frazier, is n West Nir-
ginia lady, born and raised in Lewisburg,
GreenbrieI county, where she was known lar
and wide for the perfection of her form and
features and her varied accomplishments.
An elocutionist ofmuch more han ordinary
ability, she made readings and declama-
tons her occupation for some time, but
finding the %pecuniary reward for such work
small, she turned her attention to the
stage, where she has achieved signal sue
cess. The play IL which she appears Is n
very interesting one. Il. Innocent Smith,
retired treasurer Of the Deep Mining Com
pany, starts with his bride on q tour through
Europe. Gets as far ~ New York, when
an order is issued for his arrest for supposed
defalcation. A detective tracks him to his
hotel, but he DISCUSSES himself as q valet
and attempts to elude the detective until
his steamer sails for Europe. At this point
of the play a Boston drummer comes on the
scene, sees the name of Mr.. and Mrs. Smith
and Miss Flour Mrs. Smiths sister on the
register, mistakes him for a large Cali
fornia merchant, presumes that Miss Flour
is his buyer, and Immediately sets TO work
to sell her a large order. The drummer
meets Miss Smith in the hotel parlor;
mistakes her for Miss Flour; she mistakes
him for the detective, and an opportunity
is here offered for considerable wit and
funny business. Mrs. Smith, by much
clever scheming, makes the detective
think that the drummer is Mr.. Smith, and
from this point the play is a series of
mistakes and ludicrous situations. \
capitalist in love with Miss Flour, u
Cinnamon, a French maid and a call boy
make up the rest of the characters. The
whole winds up by the receipt of two tele-
grams, one from the drummer, which reads
Come home ut once-twins, Maria" and
the other TO the detective to release Smith,
mo defalcatiOn.n

up a new dog to take the place in his az
fections made vacant by the disappear
ance of the canine he left here in Wheel

solutely the ugliest dog alive; in fact, he is
ashamed Of himself, and goes about with
his head down and a general air of apol,
ogy for his personal appearance.

THE REyTz.sANTLEY COMBINATION


The Philadelphia Press has this TO say Of
n recent appearance Of these ladies in that
city:
The New Central Theatre was literally
jammed last night by an audience that
manifested its pleasure by the most up
r~OariOus and continued applause. The en-
tertainment was furnished by the new
Rentz- Santley Novelty Company, and was
decidedly the best and most novel of its
kind ever seen here. The old, insipid
first part has been abolished, being re-
placed by a new and lively character festi-
val, called Our Yachting Party which is
brimful of bright repartee, cOmical situa-
tons, charming songs and dances, and 10
full of action that it never for a moment
becomes dull or prOSy. Then follows a
series Of rare s~pecialties, while the closing
burlesque on 'Erminie' is immeasurably
the best thing Of the kind seen here in a
decade. One scene alOne-the love making
match according tn the rules Of the prize
ring-is funny beyond all description. II
you fail to visit the Central this week you
will lose O rare treat"

aroused from their lethargy. When
their fathers and brothers here sent to
prison it was powerful evidence and
testimony Of their sincerity. 1t was
causing the young men to seek aftsr the
